Description

The RAA279971 is a high-definition analog video encoder that is designed for automotive applications. It accepts digital video input using a 2-lane MIPI-CSI2 or a DVP/Pseudo BT.656 parallel interface and supports multiple high-definition resolutions up to 720p/60 or 1080p/30. The RAA279971 uses a built-in 10-bit video DAC that encodes the incoming video stream into an analog composite format that is transmitted to an RAA279972 decoder as a single-ended or differential signal over up to 30 meters of either coax or STP cable.

  1. RAA279974

    We would like to use this chip to decode ADHD video.  According to the datasheet The RAA279974 also supports a single traditional NTSC standard definition input. Can it also sometimes handle standard definition (SD) PAL signals?

Knowledge Base

  1. AHL 能否支持通过相同电缆供电(如 SerDes)?

    不,模拟信号噪音过多,但我们在考虑如何在新世代的 AHL 中实现相同电缆的供电。

  2. 能否使用 AHL 控制通道从 ECU 初始化照相机?

    可以,AHL 的控制通道在芯片启动后立即开始工作。控制通道独立于视频运行,因此不需要主动为控制通道工作而传输

  3. What type of cables and connectors must be used with AHL transmission?

    AHL can be used with UTP, low-cost STP, and coaxial cables. The same traditional connectors that are used with NTSC/PAL analog video can also be used with AHL.
